BATTERY/CHARGING SYSTEM
If current leakage exceeds the specified value, a
shorted circuit is likely.
Locate the short by disconnecting connections one
by one and measuring the current.
CHARGING VOLTAGE INSPECTION
Be sure the battery is in good condition before per-
forming this test.
Warm up the engine to normal operating tempera-
ture.
Stop the engine, and connect the multimeter
between the positive and negative terminals of the

battery.

To prevent a short, make absolutely certain which
are the positive and negative terminals or cable.
Restart the engine.
With the headlight on Hi beam, measure the voltage
on the multimeter when the engine runs at 5,000
-1
min (rpm).
STANDARD:
Measured BV < Measured CV < 15.5 V
· BV = Battery Voltage (page 17-7)
· CV = Charging Voltage

STANDARD: 0.1 – 1.0 Ω (at 20°C/68°F)
Check for continuity between all three Yellow termi-
nals and ground.
There should be no continuity.
If readings are far beyond the standard, or if any
wire has continuity to ground, replace the alternator
stator (page 10-5).

REGULATOR/RECTIFIER

SYSTEM INSPECTION
Remove the left rear cowl (page 2-5).
Disconnect the regulator/rectifier 2P (Black) and
alternator 3P (Black) connectors.
Check connectors for loose contact or corroded ter-
minals.
